Removing the Back Cover
The first time you do this, you might want to do it over a soft surface such as a sofa
cushion, in case you drop your NOOK. The back cover is biased toward staying on, rather
than toward coming o.
To remove the back cover:
1 Unplug your
NOOK from the power adapter or USB cable.
2 Press the power button for about 5 seconds to turn o your
NOOK.
3 Hold your
NOOK in one hand with the front facing your hand and the bottom edge up.
4 Locate the tab protruding from near the center of the bottom of the back cover, adjacent to the
USB port (see the drawing below).
